Ideas Competition - Station Area
During 2016, Södra Munksjön Utvecklings AB and Jönköping Municipal Authority arranged an ideas competition for the design of a new station area at Södra Munksjön.
The ideas competition aimed to visualise ideas and the conceivable content and potential design of a new station area south of Lake Munksjön. It also aimed to show how the station could be incorporated into the planned expansion of the Södra Munksjön area as a whole.

Result of the ideas competition
Winner of the ideas competition
NEXT JÖNKÖPING
Proposer: Wingårdh Arkitektkontor AB, Gothenburg, together with BuroHappold ApS, Copenhagen
The citation from the judging panel:
"Next Jönköping" is convincing in its strong commitment to addressing the brief and of all the proposals it responded best to the many questions posed in the programme. The design of the area is attractive and links up well with the district and the town in general. The station area and the station itself demonstrate a very good level of functionality for travellers, residents, workers and visitors. The design can be developed further by toning down the scale of the public spaces and by giving the station a strong identity. The proposal is deemed to be viable.
